Speed and accuracy are critical to gaining five gears in each Shooting Gallery. Aim for the bullseyes without hitting blue “X”s or missing to keep your multiplier up! The first time you play a Shooting Gallery, you are without the Precision Aim Weapon Mod. Precision Aim requires three gears to unlock. Getting these gears is a simple task.
Machine Gun
- Always aim for the center of the target, don’t be afraid to miss a bullseye every now and then. Keep firing your gun as often as possible, but be prepared for the target to disappear when it reaches the end of its path. If you focus too much on just hitting the center, you’ll end up with fewer points than if you aimed a little more freely at the target.
- Missing the targets resets your multiplier, so stop shooting before the target drops out of sight. The multiplier bonus counts for any spot on the target hit, including the center.
Shotgun Shooting Gallery
- Accuracy is much less important here. Your goal is to hit as many targets as possible. Aim for the center of all the targets you’re trying to hit, then fire while taking a step to the left or right. Taking the step adds additional spread on the bullets, allowing you to hit a greater number of targets for a higher bonus.
Handgun
The Handgun Challenge pits you against mostly moving targets with plenty of the blue “X” targets tossed in to make things interesting.
- A large group of targets are turned around at the far side of the range. Keep an eye on them as they are your key to achieving a five-gear rating.
- Once you’ve worked about halfway through the challenge, three of the back targets flip around. Work to take them out quickly, then shoot the targets that come across the middle. There’s a green bullseye target right in the center of the bottom row of the back targets. Shooting it unlocks even more stationary targets to hit.
- Avoid hitting any of the blue “X” targets while aiming for the back set of targets. It’s easy to get “tunnel vision” and accidentally hit one as they move in from the left or right side.
Revolver
- Targets disappear after being hit once, so always aim for the bullseye. When the match starts, targets begin to move from right to left across the screen with each target appearing after the one before it is shot.
- Look for the two stationary target boxes that appear in the back of the room. As you shoot each target, a new set branches off of each of the boxes. Once you’ve cleared all of the targets, a row of targets with a special green bullseye appears.
- The targets with green bullseyes grant a lot more points when hit in the center, so take your time to aim for perfect aim before shooting at these.
Burst
Each pull of the trigger fires four shots in this challenge. All three shots hit almost on top of each other, but it’s still a good idea to aim low in the center of the bullseye to guarantee all shots grant maximum points.
- As your multiplier increases, take a few extra seconds to aim for the bullseye, keeping your eye out for the green bullseyes. Hitting all four shots with full multiplier on the green bullseyes grants 6000 points, making a five-gear rating pretty manageable.
- Targets fall over after the fourth shot of the burst hits, so pull the trigger only once on each target.
- Completing a set of targets quickly sometimes causes an extra green bullseye target to appear. These are not necessary for a five-gear rating, but are great for setting high scores!
